Comparison of salbutamol given by intermittent positive-pressure breathing and pressure-packed aerosol in chronic asthma.
Year: 1982
Type: article
Abstract: A double-blind crossover study was performed to compare 4 . 8 mg salbutamol given by pressure-packed aerosol and intermittent positive-pressure breathing nebulization in chronic asthmatic patients. The two delivery techniques produced similar changes in respiratory function and pulse rates. Given equal effect, a high-dose pressure-packed aerosol would have advantages in cost and convenience over nebulization techniques.
